Hiking

Hiking refers to the outdoor activity of walking in natural environments, often on trails or paths. It typically involves traversing varied terrains, such as mountains, forests, or hills, and can range from short, leisurely walks to more challenging, extended treks. Hiking is often pursued for recreation, exercise, exploration, and enjoyment of nature. It can also involve specific equipment, such as backpacks, appropriate footwear, and sometimes hiking poles, depending on the difficulty of the trail and the length of the hike. The activity promotes physical fitness, mental well-being, and appreciation for the outdoors.
